By United Press

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12 Production of consumer goods will be cut another 10 per

begirining Jan. 1 and automobile output will be slashed somewhat more, it was announced today v The defense-dictated cuts were announced by! Defense Production Administrator Manly Fleischmann who said there - alse will be further pinches in other civilian output. Mr. Fleisehmann and Defense ’ Mobilizer Charles E. Wilson told a joint session of four congressional committees that civilian production in the "first threes months of 1952 will be “moderately lower” than in the last quar. er of this year because the rearmament program is “beginning to hit its stride.” Mr. Fleischmann also warned that the nation will be lucky if supplies steel, copper and aluminum for the first three months of 1952 come up to esti mates,

And Mr. Wilson said that the first half of next year will be a period of “acute shortages” im SCATCe metals.

Mr. Fleischmann said the cone sumer durable goods Industry will get about 117; per cent less steel than in the last quarter of 1851. The reductions in copper and iluminum wil be even more drastic. he said. But he said the supply of refrigerators, stoves, TV sets and other home appliances “should be sufficient” because of ample ine ventories on dealers’ shelves. He confirmed that: the aute industry will gef enough materials to produce 930,000 to 950,000 autos. But he added that with inventories of materials on hand, industry should be able to produce 1,006,000 cars in the first three months of 1952.

Building te Be Hit

Mr. Fleischmann alse said there will have to be .a furthe¥#lowing down in less essential civilian building because of the need for structural steel to set up more aluminum and steel plants and other essential construction, He said allocations for schools and hospitals construction should provide for needs of elementary schools in defense areas, for res placing condemned stryctures and for completion of projects already underway, But, - he said, there probably | be delavs on unfinished prop
